My cousin Mikayla came over for tea & we went out for lunch! (After spending half an hour deciding where to go! Hahaha. We're indecisive!)

Love this spicy pierogi pizza...

You can't really tell, but my tea was glittering... haha! (One of these days I'll capture it!)

New yarn for the blanket I've been working on! I'll post photos soon.

DELICIOUS onion rings & a delicious burger from Chuck's!

An awesome store.

Fries in the alley?

Checked out a tea shop & picked up some macarons!

(Tried to) Surprise dinner for Joey's birthday!

This week was filled with crocheting & watching documentaries on Netflix (The World's Toughest Gang, Inside North Korea, Dear Zachary - which is the saddest thing I have ever seen but I highly suggest watching it.) and Locked Up Abroad. Also lots of tea, I got my hair done for the first time since last May (how had it almost been a year?!) and eating some delicious food. Oh, and hanging out with friends & my cousin!

My parents, my sister & I decided to head to Hamilton on Saturday afternoon to check out this burger place a guy my dad works with suggested. We also stopped at The Bread Bar to pick up some freshly baked bread, that I'm wishing I had in front of me right now... While we waited for a table at Chuck's, my Mom & I wandered around Locke Street checking out some of the shops. Above Goodness Me is a really awesome shop called Pure, and since I took about a million and one photos of it I'll save that for another post... haha. We also found a teashop that was selling macarons, and since I haven't had any since I was in Paris (in 2011! AH I want to go baaaaaaack! Haha.) I had to get a few. We also saw a tearoom that does afternoon tea (complete with a woman who will read your tea leaves!) so we're going to have to go check that out some time this summer.

Later that night Keith, Alex, Tessier & I headed back to Hamilton to a restaurant to surprise Joey for his birthday! Although the surprise may have accidentally been ruined, we all still had a lot of fun. How can you not at a place called Hillbilly Heaven? Haha!
